I was an employee at 4x4 Parts and during their "March Madness Sale," sales representatives kept on saying on the telephone, "We are having MAD sales here," but charged (Full Price) anyway. I would be pressured in doing the wrong thing many times, I resisted. We got in many arguments and it was always, "If they are stupid enough to pay, then let them, more money for me."
I would see customers wanting a simple 3 inch suspension kit and before you knew it, they would be told that their expensive aftermarket $3,000.00 wheels and tires would either would no longer fit or would no longer look any good. Sales representatives would push expensive needles warranties that 99% of the people would never use which was shameful.
The big thing was, "Dealership Fraud" on thousands of these parts called "Idler Arms." These factory/stock parts would fail on trucks at about 5,000 to 7,000 miles because the larger tires put a huge strain on these parts. Our mechanics were pressured in returning them to General Motors/Chevrolet and stated that they failed under normal conditions. My company has a horrible, "Unsatisfactory Record" nationwide with the Better Business Bureau as well. I am no longer with this company.
